Cello Pack Expert Needed

ShoeboxTom

Check out these 1979 cello pack ebay auctions. The seller has 2 photos of each pack that he has put up for auction. On one of the packs the back of the cello pack has the card face up!!!!!!!!!! Has this pack been tampered with? I have never seen a cello pack with the card on the bottom of the pack face up. Here is a link to the auction.

That does happen some time and doesn't mean the pack is fake. In fact I doubt if someone was going to fake that they would turn it face out unless it was a star player.

Not at all uncommon for 70s cello packs. In fact, for 1973 cellos, the card on back should always be face out. The packs are fine.

It appears to have happened in the 80's as well... at least some times.

BBCE had a couple of football cellos listed currently like that, with one being a 1983 with Marcus Allen's rookie card showing face up on the back.

I've seen tons of these, many were sold as miswraps by Topps back in the day just like the store returns.(X-outs)
